We don’t get why anyone would line up at the crack of dawn for a Black Friday sale on new plasma TVs. But for discounted Marc Jacobs? We’re sooo there. Here’s a few of our favorite Black Friday fashion sales around town.
1. Barneys Co-op is slashing prices early — starting this Wednesday, Nov. 25 — [...]

Gulper eels, electrons and other strangely beautiful scientific imagery obsesses Chicago designer Abigail Glaum-Lathbury. But that doesn’t mean that her sculptural skirts, cowl-necked dresses and what seem to be Victorian biker jackets belong in a fusty lab. They’re feminine, quirky and just a little bit avant garde, the sort of pieces 
as fit for a night of gallery-hopping as [...]

We’ll be talking fashion — and taking questions about your style dilemmas — tomorrow at noon over here. (You can also head over there now to sign up for a reminder for when we start.)
